Hi Everybody,
 
I'v Been a member of the ferret mailing list for about 2 years now, anyway I
found something very interesting and I thought I would pass the information
along.
 
There is a Web service called the " Electric Library " some of you may know
it from prodigy as the homework helper.  The idea is the service contains
thousands of full text publications from all over the world, you scan a
word, it searches through it's library of news publications, magazine
articles etc and then it will let you pick which article you would like to
read on the subject you scanned.  I was very surprised of the results when I
had scanned the word " Ferret " it came up with magazine and news paper
articles on ferrets from all over the world..very interesting reading, it
had everything from what had happen in California ( legalizing the ferret )
all the way to Michigan.
 
It had about 30 different articles to read.  I'm not in no way associated
with these guys ( Electric Library ).  I found out about it in a magazine
advertisement, so I thought I would give it a try..and of course the first
word I scanned was ferret :) Once you sign up ( internet ID only ) you can
use it for 2 weeks for free.  I myself probably won't use the service once
my 2 weeks are up, but in the meantime, it's a great way to catch up what
has been happening in the world of ferrets.  The web address is:
